Add the serial driver for the Exar chips. And also register the
platform device for the GPIO provided by the Exar chips.

Thanks, this is indeed much cleaner that v6 I saw couple of weeks before!

Andy,
Having 3 setup hooks and assigning everything there was becoming too
complicated for me to follow, so i left it as it is. Though some more
parts from the board setup has been removed. uart_offset has been
completely removed.

Yes, what about baudrate?
I will check later, but for me it seems other way, i.e. simpler to
have just 3 setup functions in a row than one is lurking somewhere
with allocation et al.

<snip>
+       CONNECT_DEVICE(XR17C154, UART_4_485),
+       CONNECT_DEVICE(XR17C158, UART_8_485),

Perhaps it takes few LOC more, but having same defined struct here
with dedicated ->setup() looks cleaner to me.


I think now I understand the 3 different setup functions. Let me try v11 (hopefully the last one).

Regards
Sudip
